Might we considered there may be a tiny difference in scope between an OS and an app like Armory Crate.

Because they’d need to support it or hire an assload of developers to bugfix and contribute to the projects they include in their distro.
And that’s something those companies don’t like doing.
System76 is a hardware vendor specifically created to cater to the Linux sphere.
I guess they mean “how to make buggy messy often usermade Desktop distributions more popular.”
As Linux itself is insanely popular, it’s everywhere and runs everything. From the vast majority of server and network infrastructure to most phones.
Before doing anything, if your screen allows it, swap DP to HDMI or HDMI to DP as output, that may fix this to the point of being able to actually boot and further fix the issue.
I’ve had this before with drivers where suddenly it would fail on either port but would still run on one of the others.
If you plan on using something like Gentoo, building Gentoo and running it in a VM a couple times tends to be a smart play.
I’ve been using Gentoo for ages, as I’m a stickler for stripping down everything to its bare minimum and even I tend to first have a couple runs at building and running it on new hardware, from within a VM.
Going in knowing the intimate details of the hardware you use is always going to be a big plus.
This.
Seriously, people, start filtering out who gets to tell you removed.
Of course, don’t overdo it and create an echo chamber for yourself, block the extremes, but don’t block basic disagreement.
I started doing this years ago, primarily on Twitch.
I despise copy pastas and edgelord comments, it’s why I generally watch streamers that have a relatively chill and small audience.
But I do go into Kripps chat simply to fill up my block list with people that relentlessly spam chats with copy pastas and other similar sorts of comments.
Later I started being a bit more gung-ho doing the same on all platforms and it made all types of social media oh so much better.
You’ll quickly notice that a lot of the comments that put your teeth on edge came from the same few loud and obnoxious people, because once you start blocking people like that, after just 10-20 of them, the comments you see are already far more palatable.
Don’t generalize whatever distro you’re running as “Linux”, especially when we’re talking package management.
Not even one of those points will accelerate Linux adoption to being with a decade of the snowballing level at which point it could Dethrone Windows.
You been drinking some absinthe or smoking the ganja-weed?
Or just straight up snorting Flakka
